E3 is almost here, so we're going to talk about the Nintendo Switch PRO along with more down to earth predictions. What's in store for Zelda , Metroid , Bayonetta , and more?

But first we're going to dive in to the new Batwoman New52 compilation coming out, and how the Batwoman CW tv show is failing to live up to it's LGTBQ roots.

We've also got some questions for Marzcat.. but c'mon.. isn't it about time you all asked?

Space Nazis? When will they learn...

Space Nazis? When will they learn...

Gina Carano gets her SELF fired, Scott Adams and other conservatives like Ben Shapiro can't tell the difference between conservative politics and literal fascism, and I take the Tumblr Accent Challenge. In Entertainment news, Jack Black is cast as ClapTrap in the Bordlands movie, but I think you should fund mcchris instead. Batwoman is doing poorly in the ratings, but Javicia Leslie is doing awesome IMO. Oh. and questions for Marzcat!

Treason Terrorists and Sedition hit the Capital Building, have criminals ever been this stupid before?

Ep 7, Addams, Family, and Facing the Music

Ep 7, Addams, Family, and Facing the Music

The blood of the Covenant is thicker than the Water of the Womb.. and I've ALWAYS wanted to be an Addams. That's my kind of family. Choose your own family wisely, it isn't always genetics that really matters. Also, was 29 years exactly the right amount of time for the perfect ending to Bill and Ted? Bill and Ted Face the Music is finally out, and it's EXACTLY the movie we NEED in 2020. Spoiler free review, of course.

Batwoman, Bi-Erasure, Incels and Bri Larson

For the first half, we get into the recast of BatWoman by Javicia Leslie who replaces Ruby Rose. Is this more Bi-Erasure or is all representation GOOD representation? Then some drama happened when Bri Larson said she wanted to play Samus Aran in a Metroid movie, boy were the Incels angry!

The silent protagonist in video games, when it works and when it doesn't. Also, being ESSENTIAL.

The silent protagonist in video games, when it works and when it doesn't. Also, being ESSENTIAL.

Part 1 is about the silent protagonist in games, when it works, when it doesn't. From Xenoblade Chronicles X to Horizon Zero Dawn, silent to voice acted and why sometimes silent is better... Then we have another set of questions for Mars Cat, followed by a more serious discussion.. being an Essential employee during a pandemic, but not being treated like an essential human.

FFVII remake, and why FFVIII deserves the treatment next.

We've played the demo. We've been hyping this game for years. FFVII remake is amazing. Fun fact.. I hate FFVIII, sorry not sorry. BUT I think it deserves the remake more than any other FF game, and I'll tell you why. After that, our first interview with Mars Cat, and then we dive into HarleyQuin
